Portable Charging Units

Our Portable Charging Units are used by Commercial and Military customers around the world for ground support of all types of aircraft including commercial airliners, business jets, fighter jets, helicopters, transport planes and unmanned aerial vehicles. The Nitrogen charging units are used for:

  • Tire Inflation:
  • Charging of Undercarriage struts:
  • Topping up Accumulators:
  • Topping up Cylinders supplying escape slides
  • Charging larger volumes in the above applications:

With the cylinder valve closed, the inlet can be connected to a larger cylinder and larger volume charging applications. The controls and safety features in the PCU are still utilised ensuring safe operation.

Regulations & Standards

§ ICAO Document 2984 AN/905: Technical Instruction for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods by Air.

– Built in accordance with this requirement, the unit can fly on an aircraft fully charged because the cylinder and cylinder valve are protected.

§ Product is FOD (Foreign Object Damage) compliant.

– All equipment for use on an airfield must be FOD compliant thus ensuring parts

  • n the unit won’t detach, possibly being drawn into aircraft engines causing

damage.

§ Product assessed in accordance with The Transportable Pressure Equipment Directive 1999/36/EC § Product assessed in accordance with The Transportable Pressure Vessels Regulations 2001 § The Air Publication (AP119F-2748-123)

– This document is required by all European Defence Airfields. For civil users, it is not required.
